What I love about Red Cross

First of all, I love any nonprofit that devotes so much time, energy and money to helping so many people, but Red Cross really goes above and beyond to help out. Some ways Red Cross helps people are really simple, like contacting someone's relative in the army and giving them a message, and other ways are little more complicated, like helping someone recover after a disaster takes place. We all work really hard at all of these things to make it work. A lot of the people at Red Cross are volunteers and they devote so many hours each week to helping make all these services possible. It amazes me that so many people want to volunteer their time to help out. A lot of the tasks seem daunting and draining, but people still want to do them without pay. I think it's really great that so many amazing people exist that don't need to be receiving a paycheck to do help out.
